This guide will tell you when what are the green barriers in Jedi Survivor and how to get past them to progress through the main objectives and explore additional side stories and rumors in the game!
As soon as you start playing Star Wars Jedi Survivor, you’ll notice that it’s full of obstacles, puzzles, and areas you can’t access immediately. Many games require the player to unlock multiple abilities or skills before accessing certain locations and Jedi Survivor is no exception.
Among the most common obstacles are green barriers. These barriers prevent Cal Kestis from entering a specific area. Usually, there’s something valuable behind a green barrier. It could be a skill point, chest, or even an unexplored location.
Returning to the first locations of a game with every ability unlocked gives you many new things to do and discover. New enemies to defeat, challenges to complete, collectibles to find, and more!
How and when to unlock the ability
As with most of Cal’s abilities, you’ll get it after reaching a certain part of the story so don’t worry, just playing through the main story will unlock this very cool ability. In this case, it’s after reaching the Pilgrim’s Sanctuary.
This will happen on your second visit to Jedha shortly after you solve the door puzzle and meet Brother Armas and right before one of the coolest moments of the game (no spoilers). Since the main story must be played there are no shortcuts or tricks to get it.
Merrin will give you her Magicked Charm, a powerful article that contains some of her Nightsister magic. This is the item that allows its user to get past through green barriers in Jedi Survivor.
Being able to get through barriers is one of my favorite abilities of the game due to how many possibilities it opens. Exploring and finding new things in any game is always super fun.
Jedi Survivor lets you investigate every corner of the game. Before this, you must acquire a lot of abilities. It’s not a fast process but the wait is worth it once you’ve unlocked everything.
How to use the ability to pass through green barriers
When exploring the worlds in Jedi Survivor there is only one use for Merrin’s Magicked Charm. It is to move you from Point A to Point B by getting through a green shielded barrier.
This is done with the press of a single button but since the game can be played on multiple platforms with a keyboard and different types of controllers I can’t tell you exactly which one is it.

Each time you pass through a green barrier after a jump, your jump is reset and you can jump one more time. This is incredibly helpful for things like the Force Tear challenges – parkour puzzles that require precision, good timing, and multiple tries.
Many players have a hard time with these crazy parkour puzzles. It is possible to skip them but doing so will prevent you from getting every achievement in Jedi Survivor. If you want to 100% the game then you must complete every Fractured Challenge. It’s certainly not as challenging as fighting Oggdo Bogdo but it will require some time and a lot of patience.
